I want my Applause Tomato back. It is a hybrid and is early with medium to large round red tomatoes. It is high yielding and I never had a disease problem. I can find it at Reimer Seeds which has awful reviews and an Etsy seller. I am not sure if I trust either company. I am not sure if you wanted open pollinated or hybrids and what qualifies as extinct.

These places have it. Don't know anything about Downright Natural, but it on sale there

Thanks Starlight,
I posted another thread asking about downright natural. I noticed someone else asked about them also. I am wondering if the seed is going to be true. Since it is a hybrid, they are not saving seed. I don't know where they could possibly be getting their seed. I have not been able to find Applause in the states for a few years. The cost of Nickys is more than I want to pay for seeds. And if you click on the link for Garden Harvest Supply it shows as discontinued. It has been for several years. The last time I found seeds was Vesseys and I have enough seeds to last a couple of years.

We are growing Early Cascade F2 and F5. we grow on the ground,
plants about 5 feet apart. don't spray for anything. use Lancaster Ag Corn Row Starter fertilizer and
Growers Mineral Solutions as a foliar.

Patio Prize F1 (IIRC) was a patio/container tomato from Petoseeds. Similar to Patio Hybrid, but with slightly larger fruit. Regular Patio is a pretty good substitute, and of course now we have all the project dwarfs. Patio grows well in a 12" container. Slightly larger is even better -- in this case, a larger plant with more and slightly larger fruit.
